Galileo in Queen's.
نویسنده
چکیده
THE University has lately taken into its care a piece of Florentine statuary. The statue of Galileo has been moved from the Ulster Museum to what, it is hoped, will be a permanent home in the Medical Biology Centre where it has been placed in a well-lit position at the north end of the front corridor. The statue was originally brought from Florence to Belfast by the late Professor Sir William Whitla and presented by him to the Ulster Medical Society in 1915.

متن کاملImpact of Galileo commercial service on location-based service providers: business model analysis and policy implications
Today’s mobile location-based services largely depend on a free-of-charge, best effort positioning technology, called Global Positioning System (GPS) which is controlled by the US military. The European alternative Galileo will not only offer a similar best-effort system by 2020, but also a premium-rate service known as Galileo Commercial Service (CS). Galileo CS is planned to provide higher po...
